A long-time supporter of TNGenWeb Project is downsizing and has donated nearly 100 books for us to sell to raise money for our Web-hosting and other costs.
These items are in mostly like-new condition, except for the older/historic volumes.
A table below contains the items. Some of the external links go to a different publication edition than the one given to us.
Note the table is wide, so you may need to scroll horizontally.
The Tennessee Genealogy Indexing Project’s historical newspapers activity has already hit a milestone of 5,000 names of individuals, businesses, and organizations in under a month of work.
Have you joined the adventure?
Also, we hope you will follow the activities on Facebook.
The 1950 U. S. Census is scheduled for public release on April 1, 2022.
Until an every-name index is available (underway at FamilySearch.org), researchers will have to browse census returns by Enumeration District.
To prepare for your success, we suggest the following resources.
1950 Census Articles posted at the History Hub Blog (National Archives) — click here to browse the list
Enumerator’s Reference Manual — click here to read or download free from Google Books
Tennessee County Enumeration District Maps — click here to select from the list provided by TGS
These maps were drawn on 1939 State Highway Department maps, which are themselves worthwhile to researchers.
Tennessee Genealogical Society’s 1950 Census Resources — click here to view the options
Of particular interest, see the link to Enumerator Training Films uploaded to YouTube.
Happy Birthday to the TNGenWeb Project!
25 years ago, on June 29, 1996, we started with intense fervor to get a website online for every county in the state of Tennessee so that we could bring you, our network of family history researchers, FREE genealogy information. Can you believe it is now 25 years later?
We are committed to continuing to bring you excellence for many more years too! This month, we also have a new Executive Board and we are planning multiple new initiatives to help you with your Tennessee genealogy research. Including the relaunch of our TNGenWeb blog so that we can share all the great news and happenings with you. We also look forward to your feedback.
So – stay tuned to this space. Soon you will be able to subscribe to have blog updates you reach you directly in your email and you will hear more about our plans.
It is a very exciting time ahead for the TNGenWeb Project!
